Wedding crafts

The following are some of the items I made for the wedding. I did alot of DIY for our wedding. Love crafting!!


Bubbles that were available for our guests..no biggie on the design, but you would be surprised at how much people charge to have these simple things made. It cost me 1$ for 9 bottles (Dollar Tree) and 3$ for the labels to make over 120 and still have plenty of labels left)


After having a disaster with trying to make my own from scratch and using velum, I went to Michaels and found this cute DIY kit, but changed it up to make it more ours. Everything was built into the envelope

 I added the hole punches and the ribbons on the side
 This was my ring pillow (Before all the crystals were on it)
 This was the boutonnieres for the groomsmen, groom, and parents.
 I designed the vase setting.Christmas ornaments and snowflake stems, with a matching wreath
 My grams made these beautiful topiary trees for me.
 My waterfall bouquet that my mother made for me
 These were all my goodies. I have hot chocolate cones, and the clear boxes were brown chocolate penguins and white chocolate snowflakes (courtesy of my friend Kathy..TY!)
 This was my tossing bouquet. Crystal "G" on the grip
 These were my center pieces. They were vases that had "snowballs" on top

 I bought all these little penguins from Burger King..lol. 120 of them. The local BK's hated me. 1$ a pc. I made grooms with ties and bow ties, and brides with veils, tiaras, and head bands.
 The pomander (Kissing) Balls I made for my girls. These came out a lot larger then I thought..lol (There is not a hole in the arrangement, A bud fell off that we replaced after the photo)

  2. Awww, thank you so much. I had so much fun doing it! I am helping friends now planning their weddings. Trying to start a portfolio. It was very consuming, but I wouldnt have had it any other way.
